Pigs in a Rice Noodle Blanket
- 8 ounces Wide Rice Noodles
- 4 Hot Dogs
- 1 small Cucumber sliced
- 1/4 cup Peanuts chopped
- 2 tablespoons Mint chopped
- 1 teaspoon Fish Sauce
- 1 tablespoon Soy Sauce
- 1 teaspoon Rice Vinegar
- 2 teaspoons Honey
- 1 teaspoon chili oil
- Sriracha optional
Instructions
- Cook the noodles to the package instructions but make sure you don't overcook or they may start falling apart. Make sure you get really wide noodles, you probably have to go to an Asian market to get wide enough ones.
- strain and rinse the noodles and allow to rest in the strainer to dry a little. Meanwhile cut the hot dogs in half and slice off the ends so all ends are flat.
- Place two or three long noodles onto the work surface and blot dry. Also dry the hot dog. Place the dog at the end of one of the noodles and tightly roll it up. The starch from the noodle should allow it to sick to the dog and to itself. Repeat with another noodle or two until it is fully covered in a thick noodle layer. Set aside and repeat with remaining dogs.
- in a non stick pan add a little oil and bring to medium high heat. Add the dogs in one by one making sure to toss and coat in oil each time to prevent sticking and breaking. Cook about 10 minutes stirring and tossing often to brown on all sides and heat through.
- while they are cooking, prep and chop the cucumbers, mint, and peanuts. Mix the fish, soy, vinegar, honey, and chili oil in a small bowl.
- Place the dogs on a small serving plate and top with the cucumbers, mint, and peanuts. Pour the sauce all over them and optionally add some sriracha. Serve.
